teaming up for a holiday project has fans unable to contain their excitement.
The Chicago Fire star and the mother of one of the most famous football players in the world both took to Instagram on Dec. 1 to drop an exciting and mysterious tease.
“Little holiday magic…: Things are heating up in Mistletown this year thanks to . Check out the trailer soon!” Kinney, who stars as Kelly Severide on the long-running Dick Wolf drama on NBC, wrote.
“Gather the family for a new holiday (and @google) classic. Trailer kicking off soon,” Kelce captioned her own post.
They both shared a promo image for the project, titled “The Gift EXchange,” styled as a traditional Christmas rom-com movie poster. Kinney is decked out in a gray sweater and scarf as he holds a wrapped gift and looks over at his on-screen love interest, played by Nikki Garcia (nee Bella).
Behind them, Momma Kelce smiles with her hands clasped, looking genuinely proud they’ve found one another.
The poster also reveals their festive character names, with Bella playing Holly Hall, Kelce as Carole Hall and Kinney starring as Aiden Winter.
A few days later, the full sponsored campaign styled as a holiday-short dropped, revealing Holly and Aidan were exes, who have now picked each other’s names for the town’s annual Secret Santa, utilizing the help of Google’s tools to find the perfect gift for one another that has a nostalgic touch, in hopes of of not fumbling their second shot at love.
tially hyped about the whole project, they were devastated to learn it’s not a real movie, as the narrator confirmed.
“Yay Mama Kelce! 👏 can’t wait to watch,” one wrote, as another noted, “IM SEATED 🪑.”
“TK and Donna Kelce?! My worlds are colliding!!! 😍🤩” another expressed, as someone else quipped, “Wow, that’s awesome. This is the most amazing gift to your fans, ❤️❤️❤️😍😍.”
One fan called out Kinney for rarely posting on social media, noting, “Oh the excitement of you finally posting something and then to see you in a movie! Oh I can not wait to see this my sexy !”
“THERE IS NO CHRISTMAS PRESENT BETTER THAN THIS,” someone else shouted.
Another fan pointed out that Kelce’s career has flourished ever since Travis Kelce’s relationship with Taylor Swift blossomed, writing, “Mama Kelce be seeing her name in LIGHTS 🤩.”
“What!!! It’s not a real movie ! 😢” one noted, as another confirmed, “This should be a Christmas hallmark movie.”
Kelce, who made her Hallmark movie debut last season in Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story, will also be competing in the upcoming season of The Traitors.
And if Hallmark or Lifetime are paying attention to fans, they might want to cast this trio in their next holiday movie.
